Do trees really grow at 45degrees to the vertical in where this bloke rides?

A pretty bike though.

Birel it round and he's probably only going down a 30 degree slope.

Dura Ace cranks on an MTB, hmmm, less weight, better chainline, better Q-factor...

**goes to take chainset off road bike and experiment!**
mmm michelin tyres, bet it only does 1/2 mile before he stops to fix a puncture. They may make good car and motorbike tyres but the last set of michelins I had went in the bin after 3 months as they were the most puncture prone pieces of poo I've ever had the misfortune to ride on.

At the right angle that picture looks pretty impressive. As it is, it just looks a little fake.

Nice bike though...

Aye, bit MBUK stylee with the inclination of the pic.


The dura ace cranks caught my eye when I saw his bike in Dirt a few months ago. I guess thats what you can do when you're sponsored / rich. Ie not worry about trashing top end kit as it'll get replaced for free!

Why would they get trashed?

Same number of splines as XTR/XT etc, and I've NEVER seen anyone bend an HT2 crank of any type! I think it'd be interesting if you could get chainrings to work.

JaseT would have a field day 'clone' spotting but I can't be ar$ed to do anything more with it. ;)

Neat looking rig, if you're into that sort of thing.
